Happening on all 4 of my PCs. Extremely high memory usage to the point that my machines start to shutdown with out of memory errors. I had to uninstall MWB from all four until someone comes up with a fix.

This is unacceptable!

I have found that a total uninstall is not necessary. Just set the MBAM service to start manually or disabled, restart, and the memory will not be consumed and you can still work. Once they have a fix, you can set the service to Automatic Start again.

The fix worked OK on my Windows 10 box, and the memory consumption is under control on Windows 7, but the Web Protection will still not enable on Windows 7, either through the pop up or the protection tab of settings. Anyone else have this issue?

While I realise the inconvenience and even distress caused by this event to many, I can't help but think that since this only came on earlier today presumably with an update, feedback here was addressed quickly and the thing fixed within hours.

Not too bad really. There are a few other critical software vendors who wouldn't even get close to fixing a problem in that time.
